Once a hungry young boy, Josh found himself sprinting across the street searching for something to eat. Unfortunately, his desperate search led to a tragic encounter with a speeding car.

Despite attempts to get back on his feet, he collapsed, overwhelmed by pain and covered in mud.

Meeting Josh’s gaze, I was struck by the silent plea in his eyes—a stark reminder of his youth and vulnerability. His frail presence on the street was a heartbreaking contrast to the lively spirit we often associate with childhood.

The unforgiving streets offered him no comfort, only a relentless struggle for survival.

Finding Josh curled up inside a cardboard box ignited a sense of urgency within me. It was impossible to ignore his plight, and I felt compelled to offer him a chance at a better life. I silently promised him, “I will make sure you have a brighter future.”

Despite the fears and uncertainties that surrounded him, Josh showed incredible resilience, exemplifying the human spirit’s remarkable ability to endure in times of adversity. His determination inspired me to give him the hope he deserved.

Now surrounded by the warmth of a caring family, Josh’s difficult days are behind him. In the embrace of his new environment, he has found comfort and security, as well as endless possibilities for the future.
